Abstract excerpt
The chromosome 8p11-12 Werner syndrome (WRN ) locus encodes a RecQ helicase protein of unknown function that possesses both 3' --> 5' helicase and 3' --> 5' exonuclease activities. We show that WRN cell lines display a marked reduction in cell proliferation following mitotic recombination, and ge...
